‘If you ask for clear cake unity, you depress your citizens after which it does not matter in the event you shake fingers’, they have been pronounced by Yolanda Díaz a month and a half in the past. But the reality is that Podemos and Sumar have began their journey collectively for 23J with a clear smack for the function within the coalition of Irene Montero, who, a minimum of for now, appears excluded from the coalition, regardless of Podemos’ makes an attempt to keep away from it. .
At eight fifteen within the afternoon this Friday it was confirmed that sure, that the 2 formations shall be inside the identical candidacy, that of Sumar, who will carry the face of Yolanda Díaz on their ballots. Even so, the events continued to barter and the coalition didn’t register till simply earlier than ten at night time. Once once more, the events to the left of the PSOE have performed with the instances that value them bother within the regional elections in Andalusia, though they’ve managed to current it on time. To discover a title from Podemos within the Sumar por Madrid lists, you’ll have to go to fifth place, the place Ione Belarra shall be, behind Íñigo Errejón. In these of Barcelona, we are going to discover a member of Podemos in fourth place.
The one that isn’t but identified if it can seem on the lists, though it’s not counted on for related positions is Irene Montero. Because she just isn’t among the many names which have been leaking since late Friday afternoon and every little thing signifies that Podemos goes to should sacrifice her, except there’s a flip of occasions on the final second. Nor does it appear that there’s a place for Pablo Echenique, present spokesman for United We Can in Congress and whose veto by Sumar was additionally greater than a rumor for days.

23% of political and financial weight for Podemos
The purple occasion could have eight locations on the lists with a transparent risk of getting a seat. According to what has been revealed, his would be the first in Navarra, the one in Guipúzcoa, the one in Álava, the one in Las Palmas, the one in Cádiz, and the one in Murcia. If Sumar maintains the 38 deputies from the events that kind it, all of these would have seats in Congress. But if a couple of lose illustration, they are often neglected. They are additionally supplied different opening positions on the record, however for them to enter they should enhance the outcomes of 2019. These are the primary positions in Ávila, Badajoz, Cáceres, Granada, Guadalajara, Palencia, Segovia and Teruel.
At this time, every little thing signifies that the settlement includes sacrificing Irene Montero, the Minister of Equality, who has arrived burned on the finish of the negotiations and who was an insurmountable impediment for Sumar. Podemos has tried till the final second to maintain it on the entrance line, but it surely had acquired a transparent message from its bases, which referred to as for a merger, and a merger, for Sumar, was not doable if Montero was nonetheless there.
Podemos comes from poor electoral leads to the 28M regional elections that, amongst different losses, left them with out illustration within the Assembly and within the Madrid City Council. The demoscopia additionally tells them that they need to go collectively if they need the potential for reissuing the coalition authorities to exist,
With these outcomes and pact by pact, Yolanda Díaz has been gaining power with the formations which have signed their integration into Sumar and has left Podemos, the origin of the “new” left, in a weak place relating to negotiating. According to Sumar, Podemos could have 23% of the parliamentary weight; of the time within the debates; and financial assets. But they’ve left the occasion at a drawback in comparison with Más Madrid, which could have third and fourth place on the record for Madrid, along with that diabolical situation of doing with out Irene Montero, who in Podemos just isn’t the overall secretary (Ione is Belarra), though each are on a par in political weight and within the eyes of the citizens.
The black week of Irene Montero
The day began badly -again- for Irene Montero. A sentence from the Supreme Court that forces her to pay 18,000 euros to María Sevilla’s ex-husband for calling him an abuser with out proof. The sentence comes three days after an modification to her star regulation, the ‘solely sure is sure’, for diminished sentences for sexual offenders.
At this level, the Minister of Equality is already struggling within the confrontations with the magistrates of the Palacio de las Salesas for his or her resolutions. But what awaited him subsequent was way more tough to simply accept: the affirmation of the veto of his particular person, marked by a colleague from his aspect of the coalition within the Government, who was additionally indicated as ‘delfina’ by Pablo Iglesias, the founding father of Podemos and associate of the minister.
Ione Belarra herself has confirmed that veto, whereas clamoring towards it. And she has tried to put it aside with a considerably cryptic message, by assuring on the one hand that Sumar and Podemos would run collectively within the elections on the identical time that she was against doing with out her fellow seat.
Statement by Ione Belarra
According to Belarra, Montero has advised the management of Podemos that he was keen to take a step again, however his colleagues have advised him no. That that will be unfair. Belarra’s assertion, criticizing the veto, was a message to Yolanda Díaz, a redouble of strain within the final hours of the negotiation.
The normal secretary of Podemos had the mandate of the militancy to barter entry into the coalition, and that was a variety of weight for her, who had additionally acquired one other message on the polls: going individually is penalized within the elections. So she has compelled the machine to the tip, making it clear that she was not going to cease till she managed to maintain Montero by her aspect.
Messages from different Podemos leaders have been added to the phrases of Ione Belarra, akin to Pablo Iglesias, who has most well-liked to not “shut up” in order that tears wouldn’t come to his eyes… “of pleasure”. Another of Iglesias’s males, rejected within the Sumar house is Pablo Echenique, who this Friday honored her with a picture of him in Congress throughout a speech that -Echenique affirms- “is already the historical past of the struggle towards fascism.”
I used to be very near her. I noticed how he trembled with rage, how he wept and his voice cracked a bit… and the way he discovered the power —even so— to make an intervention that’s already historical past of the struggle towards fascism.

Late within the afternoon, Podemos trusted the margin to incorporate Irene Montero, however the fact is that, no matter vocation she had, Echenique’s tribute, she has been taking a farewell physique to the Minister of Equality who has risen with a sentence from the Supreme Court and the day has ended with a sentence from those that till lately have been his companions within the struggle.
